It seems over the last month or so the site has been pretty slow for me. It used to be pretty snappy.
Anyone else experiencing slow performance?

Time to run a virus scan because your computer may be sick.

Hello, g997 and good afternoon to you. I haven't noticed any slow down of this forum and as a moderator, I fly around it all of the time. I know this must be frustrating for you so perhaps on top of a virus scan, you may want to try clearing your cookies as well and see how that affects things on your end. Are you running mobile or regular and which browser are you using?

No problems here either and I usually have at least 4 pages open at all times, plus I open/close more as the day passes. I reboot my PC usually once a week, other than that it's going 24/7.

I haven't noticed any slowdowns here either. If you haven't already done so, clear your cookies for the forum and restart your computer. I use Mavericks and Safari on my MacBook Air and don't have any issues. Please let us know if you still experience problems.

Mountain Lion and Safari, no slow downs for me. Not on my iPad either.

I ditched Firefox on my iMac in favor of Chrome, which is noticeably faster.

Hmmm, I noticed that the response time in NJ is nearly twice what the other 4 American sites have. I wonder if Tony Soprano knows about this and whether he will do something about it!!

Not specifically related to this instance, but there are quite a few times during the course of a day when the site seems to lag. Is this due to scheduled maintenance?

I have noticed that as well John on many occasions and have submitted tickets and only once was there a problem. I wish I could offer an answer

No answer IMO is needed. You guys are funding this yourselves and we greatly appreciate that. As such I have no problem with a little lag now and again.

Just pointing out that there is still a very sever lag loading pages. Last night it was so huge that I just left the site as it was unnavigable.

Only pointing this out as I'm sure you want you site performance to be the best

I wish I knew what to tell you as our ticket recently submitted showed no problem but I will submit again.

In which state are you located
